Yesterday, "Black Monday", the global stock market was "full of mourning".

The Shanghai Composite Index plunged 8.49%, the Nikkei 225 Index plunged 4.61%, South Korea's Component Index fell 2.47%, and Hong Kong's Hang Seng Index fell 5.17%. The European and American stock markets also fell sharply, with the Euro Stoxx 600 index falling 5.4%, the largest one-day decline since 2008; The Dow Jones fell 3.58%, the S&P 500 fell 3.94%, and the NASDAQ fell 3.82%...... In addition, gold futures and crude oil futures have not been spared.

A global financial market race compares to a bleak Monday.

Give a song to investors and friends all over the world to encourage each other - all the daily limits yesterday have become distant memories. I have worked hard to get through Friday, but who knows that Monday will come again. I can't go up and down with the market, for the sake of my beloved stocks. No matter how deep you fall, you have to be firm, just for those who look forward to it......

——Excerpt from Xiao Ke's "Mein Kampf" to Xiao Gou's request, Wang Zhijian cannot be said to be indifferent, he talked to Niu Li about this matter, which Xiao Gou later overheard from the mouth of a guard at the base.

However, Niu Li, who has always been obedient to Wang Zhijian, is extremely stubborn in this matter, so even if Wang Zhijian comes forward, the matter cannot be resolved.

Xiao Gou returned in despair, and a day later, Mary spent her last days in a general ward of the Anxi City Human Life Hospital. At that time, Xiao Gou was already penniless, and even the hospital bill was settled by the bald head and Tian Rong's money.

"You told me that I can't do anything that is immoral, so I didn't dare to rob a bank."

Xiao Gou finally had a sour nose and tears welled up in the corners of his eyes.

Ever since he woke up, Shook had not dared to let himself miss anyone too much. Whether it is Xiao Gou Ergou, or Mary, Mo Qingqing, all he can do is to bury his thoughts about them deep in his heart.

Missing is one of the most torturous emotions, it can make people crazy and lose their minds, so Xiao Ke thinks that he is doing a good job, and he must live before he can find a way to find his thoughts. After a long time, he even thought that he would slowly forget, just like after he crossed over to Anxi, many things in the magic academy slowly faded away.

However, Xiao Gou's narration pulled him into the whirlpool of memories, and for a while, countless pictures came one after another, his heart tingled, and he couldn't help bending over, sweat coming out one by one.

Since he came to Earth, he has met a lot of women, Xiao Ke is not a fool, of course he can feel the good feelings of women, but when it comes to love, it can only be Mary, that is the only woman he loves.

"What's wrong with you, dumb, sick?"

The bald head and Tian Rong also came over in surprise, it is said that it is difficult for magicians to get sick, but now it is different from before, in case any virus is mutated, no one knows.

Xiao Ke waved his hand, one hand pressed his chest, the pain came very quickly, and it refused to go away for a long time, he could barely bear it.

It turned out that this was the pain of longing, and Shook closed his eyes, and Mary's face came to mind. It turns out that I have never forgotten......

After a long time, Xiao Ke straightened his waist with difficulty, he drank a can of beer in one go, wiped his mouth, and motioned to Xiao Gou to continue, no matter what, he had to understand all this clearly.

"Light the cigarette first, don't think too much, dumb, I think Mary still wants to see you happy."

Xiao Gou used the most old-fashioned words to comfort Xiao Ke, but even he couldn't let go of this matter, and every time he thought about it in the middle of the night, he would grit his teeth and hate his incompetence.

"After burying Mary, I'll go back to my old ways, you know......"

couldn't explain what he thought at the time, after handling Mary's funeral, Xiao Gou almost didn't have to dress up, just picked up a broken hat on the side of the street and put it on his head, and then sat on the street not far from the exit of the national security base every day, he just wanted to wait for Niu Li to come out.

can't rush in, Xiao Gou, the guards inside, all know each other, some of them used to have a good relationship, they are all ordinary people, and Xiao Gou doesn't want to implicate them because of his rush in.

This is inevitable, once someone rushes in and causes a certain amount of damage, the guards' defensive dereliction of duty cannot be taken off, and the light is punishment, and if the heavy is serious, it may go to a military court, and it is not impossible to end up with a sentence of several years.

However, until the day the world war broke out, Xiao Gou could not wait for Niu Li to get out of the base.

"World war?"

Xiao Ke was surprised, why the world became like this was what he had always wanted to know, but he didn't expect Xiao Gou to give him the answer here. Nodding, Xiao Gou smiled, his smile indescribably strange.

"You broke the research institute of the American side in Los Angeles, and the waves of protests of the American people came one after another, and later, that tragic missile was launched, so the cause of the outbreak of world war is on your head."

Xiao Ke is the feeling of lying down the gun, Nima's, Lao Tzu broke into that broken research institute to save people, the world war is my. Shaking his head and smoking a cigarette, he silently listened to Xiao Gou's continued narration, and the context was gradually smoothed out by him, and finally, a big picture slowly unfolded.

The missile fired from the ship by the American Navy soldier, who could not bear the pressure, did not land in the Pacific Ocean, but directly hit Canberra, the capital of Australia.

Speaking of which, Shook made a joke, he always thought that Sydney, the capital of Australia, but he didn't know that Sydney is the capital of New South Wales, Australia, the largest city and port in Australia and even Oceania, and one of the largest and most prosperous international metropolises in the world.

Sydney is the economic and financial transportation center of Australia, as well as an important financial center and shipping center in the Asia-Pacific region, and Sydney plays a pivotal role in the Australian national economy, with Sydney's GDP accounting for about 30% of Australia. Most of the world's leading multinational companies have branches or offices in Sydney.

But Sydney is really not Australia's capital.

It was a nuclear warhead, and the result can be imagined, and what is even more unimaginable is that that day happened to be the time of the collective meeting of the heads of government of Australia, and it no longer matters what the meeting is, the important thing is that the whole world knows that the prime minister of Australia and several powerful governors were all killed in that attack.

No matter how good the relationship between the two countries is, no matter what explanation the United States makes, Australia's new government will not be able to endure this breath, otherwise they will be driven to Taiwan by the people in a few days, not to mention that Canberra has been shrouded in nuclear radiation, and it can be said that Australia's capital no longer exists.

Therefore, war inevitably broke out.

Moreover, due to the anger of the domestic people, Australia was forced to leave to start the nuclear bomb manufacturing program, and Australia was originally a "nuclear threshold" country with a nuclear program, nuclear technology, and the potential to produce nuclear weapons, so there was no difficulty for them to manufacture a nuclear bomb.

The United States was at first at a loss, and the military was quite restrained in its counterattack against Australia, but it could not bear to endure two months later, when an Australian nuclear bomb was dropped on the US Pacific Fleet Command in Hawaii.

It is said that Australia's new government does not want to drop nuclear bombs in this place, and they prefer to throw them in the center of the desert like Las Vegas, for example, but again, it must be agreed by the Australian people.

Originally, the manufacture of nuclear bombs had been delayed for some time, and their own position had long been in jeopardy, and in order to give an explanation to the people and for the sake of their own ass position, they could only use a few military bases in the United States.

Hawaii has always been a strategic military location for the United States, and the United States has established a major naval and air military base in the Pacific region on Oahu in the Hawaiian archipelago.

The US military bases in Hawaii have five major headquarters -- including the US Pacific Headquarters, the Pacific Army Command, the Pacific Air Command, the Pacific Fleet Command, and the Pacific Fleet Marine Corps Command.

Among them, the Pacific Headquarters is responsible for commanding nearly 250,000 US troops, more than 230 warships, and more than 1,600 aircraft in the Pacific Theater, and its jurisdiction covers about 94 million square miles of operations in the entire Pacific and Indian Ocean waters.

It can be said that Australia stabbed the tiger's buttocks, and it was stabbed with a sharp knife, and the United States was in an uproar, and the previous anti-war voices were instantly suppressed, and the United States officially declared war on Australia.

The former allies have come to this point, and it has to be said that it is a trick, and it is estimated that the American soldiers who originally fired the tomahawk did not expect such a result. If he doesn't regret it, no one will care, except himself.

It's really a full-scale fight, Australia is definitely not an opponent of the United States, the whole world knows it, but it's nothing, it's like a child fighting, it doesn't matter if you can't fight yourself, you can pull people, grandma is a bear, Lao Tzu pulls ten or eight buddies, no matter how horizontal you are, you can only be beaten up.

Australia will pull allies, the United States allies are more not, as soon as the war began, Australia and several of his allies were beaten back and forth, how can this be done, this is the rhythm of destroying the country, Australia can't sit still, they have to find a way.

The original war was to control the scope of Europe and Oceania, and the rest of the world was holding a magnifying glass to watch the excitement, besides, you would not dare to participate in this kind of war if there were no nuclear bombs.

But when Australia and its allies began to retreat, Australia finally went mad. Everyone knows that it's not a big deal to fight in normal times, both sides know the severity no matter what, why don't you dare to beat someone to death, then you have to go to jail, no one likes to put themselves in prison.

But the madman is different, the madman likes to carry a kitchen knife and slash wildly, and it is irresponsible to hack him to death anyway, just like Australia at that time, the defeat of the second phase of the war indicates that neither they nor the allies will have room to turn over, so who cares about thinking about the rest......
